Process for producing oxidation-resisting hydrogenated fullerene and hydrogenated fullerene produced by the process

摘要

A process for purifying a hydrogenated fullerene containing a solvent by heat-treating the hydrogenated fullerene, and a hydrogenated fullerene obtained by the purifying process, which contains the solvent in an amount of not more than 2% by weight based on the weight of the hydrogenated fullerene molecules. Such a hydrogenated fullerene exhibits a high stability in air.
